Dogfood isn't the most attractive thing to have out and about. Conceal your dog's bowls and kibble with custom shelving units like this. Insert the bowls into the bottom drawer and then the middle drawer can hold leashes, toys, and other accessories. Lift the lid to the cabinet and there's a perfect place for keeping the kibble.

Some guys like to have a "man cave." Some people like to have crafting rooms, or studios, or offices. If you have the extra space, why not give your pets an entire lounge to themselves? Pamper your pooches!

If you can't afford an entire pool for your backyard, maybe just a small one for your dogs would be a cute addition.
